“My husband and I recently relocated to Ontario and secured a rental while searching for a home. We met Michael and Jodie at an open house and were in awe of their professionalism and instincts, knowing when to guide us and when to allow us a quiet moment to think. We asked them if they would help us on our search. They know the market, the trends, what to offer, and have a network of industry contacts. When Michael realized that we were living out of boxes in the rental he said, “We can’t have you living like that, Jodie and I will find you your forever home.” When Michael says something, he means it and more importantly, he delivers. ”
“Thank you for all of your help and support during the selling and purchasing of our homes. We appreciated your honesty of what needed to go and what needed to be changed in order to attract a quick sale. We were so very impressed at your ability to encourage our children and address their stressors of moving. You jumped through many hoops on our behalf, and when we decided to go wth a private purchase, you showed us the utmost professionalism. We enthusiastically pass along your contact information to friends and family. Thank you very much.”
“Thank you Jodie and Michael for finding our family the “dream home”. We were in a time crunch, and in a very difficult market you kept us positive. The heartfelt letter that you attached to our offer along with your negotiation skills, were the most wonderful extras. There are not many agents that go over and above in the way that you do.”
“Michael and Jodie were very attentive, ensuring that our needs were met. They took the extra steps to make us and our family feel comfortable in the process, while being patient and supportive of our decisions. I would recommend them any day. ”
